It’s not like we haven’t been down a similar path
Java introduced a language and library… but the real innovation was that it introduced a cross platform VM that was supported by some organization
WebAssembly is now doing the same thing… but just the cross-platform VM part
Now you can run Python and JS on the JVM these days but these are not de-facto implementations and so their adoption is pretty low. I wonder if the same issue will apply to these alternate WASM implementations of existing languages.
